Well, everyone has their own plans for managing their finances. including thrift. because the type of work, time of work, distance to the place of work and the salary of each person's work is different. especially if each family has a different number of family members. then of course these things will make everyone have their own way of saving money. High inflation has indeed forced people who are not accustomed to thrifty to be frugal.
And it also has advantages for those who are not used to thrifty to become frugal during high inflation conditions. Because saving to support a better life is something that is highly recommended because it's for yourself and your family. So it's clear that everyone will make unusual ways and plans when inflation occurs, such as managing financial income and expenses.
Why is inflation rising everywhere in the world? due to the global nature of the pandemic, the shipping crisis, and the global failure of the crops. Whoever wants to pay attention to these needs to quit depending on the government and start saving all of their money, in my opinion. If you truly want financial freedom, consider making a few investments.
I've been considering several investments before the global pandemic hit or before the global crop failure happened. Because I don't work for the government, there's nothing I can expect from the government except just working for myself and trying to manage some investments to personally support my future.
